PJM: On Monday, the wildly successful satire site The Babylon Bee was suspended from Twitter.
The website’s CEO, Seth Dillon, posted a screenshot showing the account had been booted off the platform:
[…] As per their usual mode of operation, Twitter did not offer any specifics about which article triggered the suspension.
Later in the afternoon, Twitter lifted the ban, explaining that its “system” had made a “mistake” in flagging the Bee’s account as spam. more here
I always marvel at how these “mistakes” always seem to go in one direction.
Fact is, Twitter is just pissing more and more of its “customers” EVERY SINGLE DAY.
– This was totally unnecessary
– This can’t be good business, in the long run
– That enrages us bystanders that are watching our side be unfairly treated
– – We want revenge

Ain’t that the truth?
The time when anyone could concede “honest mistake” to any of these lying sacks of shit is long gone. There is nothing honest about them, any of them.
REgressives are so afraid of any kind of scrutiny, even satire for heaven’s sake, that censorship is their only answer.
Is there a comparable site on the left because it’s been my observation that REgressives don’t do humor very well.
One of the headlines in today’s Babylon Bee is, Twitter apologizes after intern accidentally sets coffee on “Destroy all conservatives” button. As usual the Babylon Bee almost beat IOTW’s story to the punch once again. I read the Babylon Bee every morning right after I go to Comics.Com to start my day.
Fuck um if they can’t take a joke!
I’m old enough to remember when the Bush Clan called Ronny a “far right, xenophobic racist” It was 41 years ago.
Well there seems to be a new Ronny. HER name – HER- is “Laura Loomer”.
And GWB’s BFFs are using the same adjectives for/against her they used in 1979 for/against Ronny.
She beat a liberal GOP MAN yesterday!
this is not unrelated.
The BEE has said kind things (loves Americans) about her the last few months!
Any twatter employee that crosses my path is dead meat. That’s a guarantee.
Wait until the government says, “Oops! That was the vaccine for Trench Mouth, not Covid-19. You’ll need a do-over. Sorry.
Quit using it. Problem will go away on it’s own.
